K (189?–?) Soviet pioneer. From Kazan, Tartarstan, USSR, K was diagnosed as a ‘transvestite’ in 1937.

She was given permission by the People’s Court to wear female clothing, her identity papers were changed to her female name, and her name was removed from the military recruitment rolls.

She was featured in a 1957 gynaecology textbook.

    would anyone here be interested in collaborating on cryptpad to write up a “Why Hexbear?” blurb for trans people for the sidebar? i know a couple people that are trying to hook hexbear into more trans spaces and having a central doc they can point to when people ask why they should switch to hexbear might be useful thonk-trans

    would be especially helpful if you found hexbear useful for your transition and wanted to talk about it to more people

    join this matrix address if youre interested : https://matrix.to/#/!fYvKJEPbxrfVxxHRPn:matrix.org?via=matrix.org we’ll be using it for general propaganda activities i think

    Doctor asked me if I was pregnant. I laughed and said no. He was very serious and asked if I was sure.

    Sir. I have a penis. There is no uterus. Always a nice feeling to pass, I guess.

    cw: vent about life

    It really sucks being poor and not being able to get a job. I have no money to go and do things, I don’t have a car or any way to get around so even if I had money to do things I still wouldn’t be able to, I am stuck in a meh housing arrangement, and I’m lonely as ever because social anxiety is strong and I shut down in even the smallest social interactions. I’m a mess.

    One part of being trans that I don’t like is how much time you have to spend on your transition, and how it takes away time for other stuff. I went to a laser appointment today, and then I had to pick up my Finasteride, and then I had to sign a document for starting HRT appointments, and put the next appointment in my agenda and then I had to research if it will be covered by insurance and what I exactly have to do to get the costs insured, and put the deadline for payment in my agenda.

    This was today. I have a school deadline in a couple of days and I couldn’t work on it yet today.
